I don't feel like managing wires, etc.

It's only $50 and I hear they do a pretty good job; not like I'm buying from CyberPowerPC or some crap.

leave me alone boob

cool now leave me alone


WTF? mnewsham sad nothing to draw such a comment from you.

Maybe you should quit posting comments and advice like you're some kind of "knowledgeable, experienced computer geek."

You act like you're just a noob who's learning...or needs to learn...and refuses to take advice on much of anything.

MOST of the posters here go out of their way to help folks who come asking...but you argue with almost everyone who has tried to help.

If you know so damned much about this business/hobby,
(1) why are you having someone else build a PC? As I remember, according to you, it only takes about 30 minutes to do the job right...and
(2) why is PC gaming so hard? We remember that thread...before you changed it.
(3)You bash folks for preferring Sandy Bridge processors...then all of a sudden, you jump on the Sandy Bridge bandwagon and tell everyone it's the ONLY processor to buy...now you're ordering a PC with an AMD processor?
If it's because of a budget...cool, we all understand that.

Mike...grow up and accept help/advice when you've asked for it...or at least, don't argue with GOOD advice. Even if you don't go with what's been recommended, don't act like you're some "super-geek" who knows more than everyone here.
Almost everyone here is a hobbyist who attempts to help those who ask.

(1) Building a PC isn't hard and can actually be quite fun; however managing the wires, testing the parts, etc is just annoying and frustrating. I will gladly pay a $50 premium in order for me to have my parts assembled, tested and have the cables managed right from the E-tailer itself.

I'm not being a hypocrite, I'm just being a lazy-ass.

(2) PC gaming isn't hard. I made that thread because I was frustrated at the time due to huge budget constraints.

That thread is an example that I am willing to take advice from people and change my view-point; because you guys made me realize PC gaming isn't hard, but it does require a nice amount of money for the performance I want.

(3) Again, you claim I can't take advice from people and continue to be stubborn; yet you get mad at me for changing my opinion on Sandy Bridge?

Sure mnewsham was trying to help me earlier but ever since I joined this site he's been constantly harassing and opposing every post I make. He's a nice guy and has helped me plenty and I thank him for that but he really does need to stop.

BoomerD, what you need to do is leave me alone. You (and mnewsham) constantly troll every single thread and post I make and it's tiring.

For some reason the people in General Hardware have seemed to hate me ever since I started posting here; I want to tell you guys: I AM NOT YOUR ENEMY. I AM YOUR FRIEND.

I am here to offer advice and help just like you guys are; I am here to ask questions and learn just like you guys are; Sure we may disagree time to time but you don't have to get mad and insult me.

We can co-exist peacefully guys.

Sure, as long as you bring up the posts that i responded to. (what you did to warrant such a reply) I try not to do anything to you unless you troll or say/do rude things first. In this thread i have been completely civil, I had not said anything against what you proposed and i even offered good clear advice. I was 100% sincere when i said it looked good and to "have fun with it". I am still wondering how that got me the response of "now leave me alone" but i guess there are always life's little mysteries.

Edit- If you are going to reply i will read it later as i have work in 2 an half hours and i need SOME sleep...
